I find being lied to far worse than being lied on. You gotta care what other ppl think for being lied on to sting-I don't. Believe everything you heard.
But you gotta get close to me to lie TO me. I actually let you in and you betrayed my trust.

Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

Watching vids about Korean workers talkin shit about the customers at the nail shop and getting owned. I stopped getting my feet done at the shop when I sensed I was being judged but couldn't be sure. All I need is the inkling.
